A PLANNING application in relation to a property at Cooks Spinney has been submitted to the Harlow Council planning committee.

The application states:

Two storey rear infill extension and raising of height of existing flat roof over rear extension by 0.15m

Application Site and Surroundings

The application site is a two storey detached dwelling located in a residential area. The property has previously been extended in the form of a two storey side extension and single storey rear extension. The garage to the original dwelling has become attached to the existing two storey side extension standing on the east boundary of the site.

The single storey rear extension is located to the rear west corner of the dwelling. Both the garage and the single storey rear extension have a flat roof over. The extension and the garage have resulted in the rear amenity space of the dwelling to be a partially enclosed a courtyard. There also exists a conservatory with a pitched roof over on the west flank wall of the original dwelling.

Summary of Representations Received

Two objections have been received on grounds of –

 Impact on character of surrounding area
 Impact on privacy
 Parking congestion
 Resulting relationship with the adjoining garage
 Impact on day light
 Proposed use of space as habitable in existing extension near to adjoining garage.

The proposal will be discussed at a Planning Committee meeting at 7.30pm on Wednesday August 19th on the Harlow Council YouTube channel.
